LEOwiese AR
The new LEOwiese (former bistro meadow) on the Adolf-Reichwein-Straße campus is an inviting open space and a green oasis in the middle of the campus. Students and employees meet here to take a break from everyday life and spend time outdoors - to relax, barbecue together or play sports and games. Shady trees and a large lawn offer plenty of space for various activities.
